[jsr-314-open-mirror] [jsr-314-open] Fwd: Fix UIData state saving model

[Martin Marinschek]

Hi all,

thanks to Ed and Leonardo for this discussion - I really believe this
is a positive example how any spec work should go ;)

@Leonardo: if you need help with the wording, just ping me.

@everyone else who is interested in this: please can you also invest
some work to review this? this is really a delicate issue, and might
change quite a lot of the UIData behaviour, so it makes sense you
invest the time.

best regards,

Martin
